As both the Docker Compose scripts and Helm charts from Alfresco should only be considered as a starting point / reference rather than a ready-to-use setup, we might also want to look into providing improved variants for these (Helm may be a lower priority as it/Kubernetes likely is not relevant for most community users). I know that Angel has already done work in the area of an improved compose reference (<A href="https://github.com/keensoft/docker-alfresco" style="color: #0a5ffe !important; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0) !important;" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/keensoft/docker-alfresco</A>) - maybe that could be a starting point to flesh out / improve upon...Prep work: Docker, Docker ComposeInterested parties:<UL><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Angel Borroy‌</LI><LI style="font-weight: normal;"><A _jive_internal="true" href="https://community.alfresco.com/people/jpotts" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Jeff Potts</A></LI><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Daren Firminger</LI><LI style="font-weight: normal;"><A _jive_internal="true" href="https://community.alfresco.com/people/kazuyuki" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Kaz Kono</A></LI><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Jonas Van Malder‌</LI></UL>Results:<UL><LI><A class="link-titled" href="https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-docker-base-java/pull/30" title="https://github.com/Alfresco/alfresco-docker-base-java/pull/30" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Trim the size of the JDK by AFaust · Pull Request #30 · Alfresco/alfresco-docker-base-java · GitHub</A> </LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">The Big Bug-Hunt-And-Fix of DevCon 2019</H3>Idea owner: Axel Faust‌ / #alfresco Discord + IRC membersDescription: As some people have discussed on IRC / Discord on January 10th, instead of building something "new" / "shiny", the community could band together and simply search + destroy / hunt + fix various bugs in Alfresco, both (very, very) old and new.Prep work: Familiarisation with Alfresco GitHub PR process, checkout of all individual Alfresco repositories and build (incl. familiarisation with running tests as best as possible)Interested parties:<UL><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Francesco Corti (as lurker, not sure I'll have bandwidth to work on something in practice, but I would like to hear the pain points)</LI><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Douglas C.

This would help customers that need more time to migrate their previous investments into Share to an ADF-based (or alternative) UI (especially if the limited feature set of ADF does not yet support their use case), and still embrace the new / improved authentication mechanism(s). As mentioned by Alfresco employee Paul Roth on the platform-services Gitter channel, an Alfresco engineer has already added support for Keycloak to Alfresco Share for an Enterprise customer, building upon an <A href="https://github.com/zmartzone/mod_auth_openidc" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Apache HTTPd module for OpenID Connect</A>. Maybe this hack-a-thon project could come up with a way that integrates directly in Share and is not restricted to OpenID Connect.Prep work: Familiarisation with keycloak integration, Share/ACS authentication componentsInterested parties:<H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Get familiar with SDK 4.0</H3>Idea owner: Filip Bruska‌Description: A few days ago beta of SDK 4.0 was released.

These devices are becoming cheaper, have better voice recognision and every day they have more and more avaliable skills. For several weeks I have been using Amazon's voice assistant - Alexa at home. This kind of devices are more useful than I thought, therefore I would like to prepare an AMP module which will allow developers to easily create a new Alexa's skill integrated with Alfresco. In order to achieve this goal I would like to use the official <A href="https://github.com/alexa/alexa-skills-kit-sdk-for-java" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Java SDK provided by Amazon</A>. In this scenario ACS will be an endpoint for the skill. So let's try to use our voice to complete simple tasks or search for some documents. We can also think about e.g. new documents notifications (Alexa's notification feature has not been made public yet, but we can use <A href="https://www.amazon.com/Thomptronics-Notify-Me/dp/B07BB2FYFS" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Notify Me</A> skill instead).Prep work: You can read about <A href="https://developer.amazon.com/docs/custom-skills/understanding-custom-skills.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">the Alexa custom skill</A>, <A href="https://alexa-skills-kit-sdk-for-java.readthedocs.io/en/latest/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">the API</A> and take a look at some earlier examples of integration <A _jive_internal="true" href="https://community.alfresco.com/community/bpm/blog/2017/02/23/build-a-voice-enabled-business-process-using-alfresco-activiti-and-aws-alexa" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</A> and <A href="https://github.com/melahn/alexa-alfresco" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</A>.Results: <A href="https://github.com/p0n3/alexa-alfresco" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Project on github</A>Interested parties:<UL><LI>Łukasz Tworek‌</LI><LI><A _jive_internal="true" href="https://community.alfresco.com/people/uvukasinovic" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Uros Vukasinovic</A></LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Extending Alfresco with gRPC</H3>Idea owner: Asgeir FrimannssonDescription: Understanding and writing clients for JSON/REST apis is a major cause of depression amongst developers, second only to writing and documenting your own home-grown I-think-this-is-REST api. RPC is back in fashion, and <A href="https://grpc.io/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">gRPC</A> is in many ways a more natural fit to what REST apis try to achieve, with elegant solution to interface definitions, code generation and versioning. Perhaps a  natural fit for consuming and extending Alfresco in a Kubernetes environment? I'd like to explore building an extension in Alfresco that exposes an extensible gRPC service, and compare and contrast this to using the REST api.Prep work: Get familiar with gRPC, learn about some existing APIs, perhaps figure out how to use SDK 4.x to build an Alfresco extension.Interested parties:<UL><LI style="font-weight: 400;"></LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Dynamic Java code execution</H3>Idea owner: Bartosz SkotarekDescription: Sometimes, there is a need to execute a piece of code on a running server - checking the correctness of returned results, repairing permissions or verifying an idea. The most popular way is to use Rhino. Unfortunately, this solution has several disadvantages: weak IDE support, the lack of comfortable debugging, no easy access to Spring context and the need to transform the code from Java to JavaScript and back. The target of the project is to implement an extension which executes sent Java source code on JVM where Alfresco is running. The implementation should be convenient for a programmer – no external dependencies or meeting special contracts. It would be nice, if the extension supports additional facilities - for example, injecting bean by Spring annotations.Prep work: Kotlin (Java is also acceptable), how class loading works, sending data via Web Scripts.Results: You can see the code and the description on <A class="link-titled" href="https://github.com/Skotar/java-code-executor" title="https://github.com/Skotar/java-code-executor" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">GitHub - Skotar/java-code-executor</A>.Interested parties:<UL><LI style="font-weight: 400;">Bartosz Skotarek </LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Add SDK 4 to generator-alfresco (yeoman generator)</H3>Idea owner: Bindu WavellDescription: Currently <A href="https://github.com/binduwavell/generator-alfresco" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">generator-alfresco</A> support SDK 2 and 3. As SDK 4 beta was released recently, I plan to add support for SDK 4 support to generator-alfresco. If time permits I may also use information provided by Jeff Potts‌ to create something to upgrade from SDK 3 to SDK 4.First pass at generating projects based on SDK 4. Worked around an issue with archetype processing code by re-writing the archetype-metadata.xml file. Still need to add code to add and remove modules using the new docker based running infrastructure.Branch with this work is here: <A href="https://github.com/binduwavell/generator-alfresco/tree/sdk4-beta-1" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://github.com/binduwavell/generator-alfresco/tree/sdk4-beta-1</A>Interested parties:<UL style="padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px;"><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;">Bindu Wavell‌</LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Project idea TBD</H3>Idea owner: TBDDescription: TBDPrep work: TBDInterested parties:<H2 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 20px;">Alfresco Process Services / Activiti</H2><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Activiti Cloud Community (activiti.org)</H3>Idea owner: Mauricio SalatinoDescription: Improving Trending Topics Campaign (<A class="link-titled" href="https://github.com/Activiti/ttc-docs/blob/develop/workshop.md" title="https://github.com/Activiti/ttc-docs/blob/develop/workshop.md" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ttc-docs/workshop.md at develop · Activiti/ttc-docs · GitHub</A> ) example with GraphQL new notification services. Prep work: If you want to run the example or play around with projects you will need your own GKE cluster that you can obtain by getting free credit here: <A class="link-titled" href="https://console.cloud.google.com/freetrial" title="https://console.cloud.google.com/freetrial" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://console.cloud.google.com/freetrial</A> You can also look at our Activiti Cloud Getting Started Guide: <A class="link-titled" href="https://activiti.gitbook.io/activiti-7-developers-guide/getting-started/getting-started-activiti-cloud" title="https://activiti.gitbook.io/activiti-7-developers-guide/getting-started/getting-started-activiti-cloud" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Getting Started - Activiti Cloud - Activiti & Activiti Cloud Developers Guide</A> We got <A href="https://github.com/Activiti/ttc-charts/pull/26" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">notifications integrated into the example and were able to see them in the graphiql client</A>Keywords: Kubernetes, Cloud Native, Containers, Spring Cloud, Activiti CloudInterested parties:<UL style="font-weight: 400; padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px;"><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Mauricio Salatino</LI><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Ryan Dawson‌</LI><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Marcello Teodori‌</LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Activiti on AWS Managed Services</H3>Idea owner: Marcello TeodoriDescription: Adapt the <A href="https://github.com/Activiti/activiti-cloud-charts/tree/master/activiti-cloud-full-example" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">full example</A> application of Activiti Cloud to work just using AWS managed services, so <A href="https://aws.amazon.com/eks/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">EKS</A> for Kubernetes, <A href="https://aws.amazon.com/rds/aurora/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Aurora</A> for PostgreSQL and <A href="https://aws.amazon.com/kinesis/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Kinesis</A> as <A href="https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-stream-binder-aws-kinesis" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">implementation</A> of <A href="https://cloud.spring.io/spring-cloud-stream/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Spring Cloud Stream</A> rather than RabbitMQ.Prep work: AWS account with rights to perform above actions.Interested parties:<UL style="font-weight: 400; padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px;"><LI style="font-weight: normal;">Marcello Teodori‌</LI></UL><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Project idea TBD</H3>Idea owner: TBDDescription: TBDPrep work: TBDInterested parties:<H2 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 20px;"></H2><H2 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 20px;">Alfresco Governance Services</H2><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Project idea TBD</H3>Idea owner: TBDDescription: TBDPrep work: TBDInterested parties:<UL style="padding: 0px 0px 0px 30px;"><LI style="margin: 0.2em 0px;"></LI></UL><H2 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 20px;">Application Development Framework</H2><H3 style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 18px;">Mixing ADF with alien components</H3>Idea owner: Leonardo Mattioli‌Description: I want to produce an example Angular app that use ADF components.
